Going forward, the Anime Membership will simply be called the Premium Membership, and will now have access to ALL Video and Manga content on Crunchyroll. This means all Premium Members (formerly Anime Members) will have access to the latest Anime, Manga, and now Drama simulcasts, with no ads, in HD, and discounts to the CR Store. There’s no change in the price.

The All-Access Membership will be called the Premium+ Membership going forward. The price will remain the same, and we are adding even more member benefits on top of the existing All-Access benefits. Some of the new added perks for Premium+ Members include:

• Free shipping! If you enjoy the discounts in our ecommerce store, Premium+ members will have even more reasons to keep buying. We are rolling out free shipping in the US on all eligible items. Look for the “ ” icon on these items

• Faster Premium+ support. We are rolling out a new customer support system to improve response times for all members

• Premium+ members will now be able to obtain and collect special badges for their profile pages, as well as choose from exclusive icons, the first of which is our new Premium+ crown

• Exclusive contests Each quarter, Premium+ members will be eligible for a chance to win an all-expenses-paid trip for two to Japan for one week! Our first contest will start this month, and we will be choosing a winner from Premium+ members who can best tell us in 140 characters or less, "What does Crunchyroll mean to you?" Be on the lookout for our official entry link as well as rules, coming next week!

• Even more stuff to be announced soon! For now, see below for more details.

We are continuing to make the Premium (formerly Anime Membership) and Premium+ (formerly All-Access) plans better and better, and I want to thank you for continuing to support Crunchyroll and our mission to bring the best of Anime and Japan to fans worldwide.

Oh wow. premium + just for the free shipping is completely worth it, of course the rest of the perks are just icing but heck being one that pays for Amazon Prime just for shipping discounts, I can say right now that alone is worth upgrading! definitely gonna do this!

Wow, that's a lot to take in. I don't know how much I'll watch the dramas, but the added manga is gonna be awesome!!

One small thing. You may need to come up with something on the premium+ to appeal to more people. The free shipping is great and all if you live in the US, but a lot of your all access members do not live in the US, and I'm not sure the other benefits will be worthwhile for them without the shipping.
